Well, I do like tea (if the word is loosely applied, meaning a tisane made from home-gown herbs and flowers with a good shot of lemon, rather than the Chinese herb commonly known as "tea").<br /><br />But honestly, coffee is my one true love. Who says it is blah, and boring and has no flavor? Allow me to say that you have not had my homemade coffee-cocoa. It is flavored with pure vanilla extract, and dark cocoa, with a hint of sugar, lots of cream, cinnamon and coffee. Let me tell you, it is heaven itself. <br /><br />Also, my sister makes coffee/molasses cookies that are to die for. <br /><br />But I do agree that tea-time sounds more romantic than coffee-time, and I observe tea-time religiously(ish). <br /><br /><br />And while I agree that tea cups are definitely adorable, my grandma has the prettiest coffee mugs ever, an I usually get a mug for my birthday every year, because my mum insists we have pretty things to eat and drink out of. <br /><br />All defensiveness aside though, I really, really liked this post.
